The
Blood Bank Guy presented a
podcast on TACO (Transfusion
associated circulatory overload)
“TACO is a very serious disease. TACO is
responsible for the second-most number of deaths from transfusion every year in
the United States (and is actually #1 in countries with active hemovigilance
programs such as the United Kingdom). It’s not something to mess around with,
but far too many clinicians and blood bankers fail to give it the respect it
deserves”.
